Tearlingathon update!
I will be liveblogging The Fate of the Tearling so if you don't want to be spoiled, please blacklist #trott or #tearlingathon.
So I have a confession to make.
When I started reading The Fate of the Tearling, I got so gripped that I read halfway through it (currently on page 273) and didn't get a chance to liveblog any of it lol. So instead, I will be liveblogging the other half of the book.
But first, I want to summarise what I've read so far:
Interesting to know that The Fetch's real name is Gavin and that he was involved in the assassination of Jonathan Tear with Row Finn. I predicted that Gavin was her father but now I'm not so sure... He is immortal but Kelsea has strong Tear blood so that doesn't seem right...
The way Tear tells Katie not be afraid of him gives me an inkling that he is her father somehow. Tear's population did increase rapidly... Could it be that Tear impregnated the women? That way he could have more heirs? And Gavin could still be Kelsea's father? Just a random thought.
Kelsea can look into the past without her sapphires?? Cool!
New theory: What if Kelsea is a child of the past? When Kelsea was imagining herself as Katie Rice at the moment where she's running away from this creature in the dark, Kelsea finds herself holding the same rock that Katie was holding. That means that the past and present are linked. What if Tear had found a way to travel through time itself? Maybe they saved one of their children that way? What if she's Jonathan's child??
Father Tyler is alive and apparently in the creche...
I like reading from Aisa's point of view. In the second book, I felt close to Lily because of what she went through and for this book, I feel the same about Aisa. It's nice to see how she tries to fight her fear towards her father and wishes to become strong like the Queen's guard and the Caden.
The Holy Father is being an ass once again by getting help from the Mort army and invading the keep. And increasing the bounty on Father Tyler's head.
I'm also enjoying Katie's POV. Even though she cares for Row, her loyalty lies with Tear. I think Tear could see into the future like his son and knows that Row has something to do with the corruption of their land. That's why he didn't include him in their training.
I think Row is the only person who hasn't changed. Popular with the ladies but still creepy. And now he has bloodthirsty children.
Kelsea makes a deal with the Red Queen to travel into the past to find a way to defeat Row. Quite a deadly alliance. Not for long though.
